Who Are We?
We have a long history of serving the community starting with The Renters Guide, originally founded in 1989 in Rochester, NY.
As we grew we decided to purchase the rights to the Real Estate Book for Rochester's East side and West side. Both publications had solid growth until we sold them in 1997. Since then they have closed and left the local market.
Around that same time we started to grow our rental magazine brand and added a second one called The Apartment Blue Book, which has been renamed the Apartment Renters Guide by the new owners. After that we purchased a rental publication in Syracuse and opened another in Western NY. All of them are still thriving today along with a new book in Albany.
Around 2002, Upstate Publishing sold off its interests in the rental side of the business.
After a brief stint buying and selling real estate we purchased the Golf Rochester Guide and have been growing that along with
www.GolfRoc.com since 2008.
